Chill Bar and Restaurant, Kathu — a split personality in a 4.2-star package
Quick read: the venue averages 4.2 out of 5 from 72 reviews but guest experiences are sharply divided between timely, hot delivery and on-premise service failures that can ruin an evening.
What reviewers say about the food
- Chicken satay arrived undercooked and cold for at least one guest.
- Chicken samosa was judged solid but noticeably heavier on potatoes than chicken.
- Mexican tacos drew the strongest negative reaction because the shells were soft and the filling was described as poor.
- On a Tuesday taco-night, a customer ordered two beef hard-shell tacos but received three soft-shell tacos and was billed at full price instead of a special.
- A 1/4 pounder cheeseburger was served with a very small patty, overcooked and dry, plus a hard bun that made it inedible for the reviewer.
How the cocktails landed with customers
- Long Island Iced Tea (LIIT) was called not bad by a reviewer who tried it on-site.
- Phuket Paradise received a clear recommendation from a different guest.
Service breakdown and a payment contradiction
One reviewer described a severe service lapse where staff would not accommodate a customer low on cash and effectively detained their friend until cash was produced, leaving the party to hunt for money on the street; that same report mentioned a single-visit bill of 1100 baht for food and drinks.
That cash-only claim directly conflicts with the venue metadata indicating credit cards and NFC payments are accepted, so assume payment options may vary or have changed — confirm with staff before ordering.
Atmosphere and sports viewing — watch your timing
- A regular described the place as a good spot to watch sports in Kathu, implying it can function well as a sports bar.
- Another guest reported being asked to move and having a TV switched to accommodate an overseas audience, a move experienced as disrespectful.
- At least one late-night visit found the venue nearly empty at 10 pm, suggesting quieter off-peak evenings rather than a reliably packed scene.
Delivery performance and value signals
A takeout customer praised delivery: food arrived piping hot, quickly, and at a price they called reasonable, which indicates the kitchen can produce solid results when logistics are controlled.
General pricing is listed as inexpensive, so delivery appears to be the best way to capture value without risking the in-house service problems flagged by reviewers.
Practical details you can act on
- Operating hours run daily from 10:00 AM to 12:00 AM, so dinner and late-evening slots are available every night.
- Free street parking is available nearby, useful if you plan to drive.
- Before you sit down, ask one staff member whether card or NFC payment is accepted to avoid the cash-only scenario a reviewer experienced.
- If you want reliable food quality, consider delivery; if you insist on dining in, avoid taco-night unless staff explicitly confirms the special and order specifics.
- If your group is coming to watch a specific match, verify which screens will broadcast it to avoid being moved or losing the picture.
Short verdict for visitors
Chill Bar and Restaurant can deliver hot, well-priced delivery and decent cocktails, but in-person visits carry a measurable risk of order errors and service problems that several reviewers found serious; check payment policy and match-screening plans before committing to an on-site night out.
